What a milestone! Last Wednesday, we celebrated 40 incredible years of serving our Proserpine community. Residents, families, and staff enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tea to mark the occasion. A huge thank you to Drakes Proserpine for their generous donation of fresh fruit and dips, which made the celebration even more special! 🥳🍰

On Friday, our community gathered for a moving ANZAC Day service, with residents coming together to pay their respects. A special thank you to Margaret Cox for her beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace on the bagpipes, which provided a beautiful, memorable close to the service.

What a fantastic, festive few weeks we’ve had! Our residents loved getting creative with Easter bonnet making, followed by a high-spirited bingo competition where we crowned two very deserving winners. The joy continued with a fresh fruit kebab workshop, and our latest fishing trip to Mandalay was another massive hit. To keep us active and entertained, Scott's weekly quiz is a firm favourite, and his Tai Chi group is continuing to grow in popularity.

March has been a whirlwind of wonderful activities! From St Caths visits and fishing trips at Mandalay to enjoying lunch at the POW and celebrating end-of-month birthdays, our calendar has been full of joy and connection.

We are truly grateful for our amazing staff and residents who make every moment special. Seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces is the greatest reward and a true testament to the warmth in our home. Here’s to many more memorable moments together!
